Transforming Communities.

We all have a duty today to make a difference that will impact tomorrow.

Sustainability Commitment & Practices.
It takes a community.

Our mission is to create places people love, where sustainability efforts and environmental stewardship are seamlessly integrated to preserve the planet for future generations. . We’re committed to building sustainable communities that thrive in both built and natural environments. More than places to live, work, and play, McWhinney communities are designed to connect people to nature and each other while protecting important habitats and wildlife corridors.

Our partnership with High Plains Environmental Center (HPEC), a not-for-profit organization responsible for protecting 275 acres of Centerra’s lakes, wetlands and open space, has allowed HPEC to offer educational programs for community members to maintain and manage ongoing sustainable design.

At McWhinney, we believe that everyone has a responsibility to do their part to ensure the possibility of a thriving tomorrow. We do our part by leading a path towards sustainability by continuously improving waste reduction and energy use, and in utilizing more sustainable building practices.

Our Community Partners

Ways we are making an impact

Thompson Education Foundation Days

Each year, the Centerra community collects water bottles and food gift cards at a Community Rally to support underserved youth in the public school district.
Centerra hosts the annual Loveland Classic 5k/10k community fun run which took to the miles of trails and benefited TEF.
Associates volunteer with TEF to support the Help Kids Succeed school supply program by preparing school supplies and stuffing thousands of backpacks for local students.
Associates support the Scheer Fund Golf Tournament benefiting TEF’s Dr. Stan Scheer Memorial Student Opportunity Fund. Dr. Scheer was a former TSD superintendent who was instrumental in helping to bring High Plains STEAM School to Centerra.

Local Food Banks

McWhinney is committed to volunteering at local food banks and hosting annual food drives to support those in need.
In a conscious effort to help and directly support local individuals and families going through difficult times in our communities, we partner with the Larimer County Food Bank, Food Bank of the Rockies, and Broomfield FISH.

Blood Drives

With critically low blood supply (in the US and Colorado) and alongside local medical provider UCHealth, McWhinney hosts blood drives to help save the lives of Front Range families, friends, and neighbors.
Our associates and multifamily communities have all stepped up to contribute and collect pints of blood to help make an impact.
McWhinney has partnered with local Girl Scout Troops to treat each generous blood donor with a box of cookies personally delivered by a smiling local scout.

Wish For Wheels

McWhinney partners with the non-profit Wish For Wheels to assemble and deliver bikes to schools in the Thompson School District and Denver Public School District. Bikes and safety helmets are gifted to local underserved youth to help reduce screen time, encourage exercise, and improve attention spans among elementary students.

Aspire 3D - Loveland Housing Authority

McWhinney continuously supports non-profit Aspire 3D powered by the Loveland Housing Authority through volunteer efforts, sponsorship and donations throughout the year. These efforts help to support local community members needing housing and shelter support.

Hearts & Horses

McWhinney associates lent a hand to help spruce up the grounds at Hearts & Horses which serves as a therapeutic riding facility in Northern Colorado helping to serve and support people with disabilities.
